This will prove very useful as a starting point - in particular the table in which the symptoms are differentiated. I believe, from your description, that I have been ping-ponging this whole year between succeeding at ERP only to relapse into PTSD-related depression, which crashes my ERP efforts. Are there any resources you recommend that go deeper into the OCD / PTSD connection?

This describes me to a T and I've been trying to get better for over a decade and it just keeps getting worse.

The info in this video isn't incorrect but it fails to properly take into account not single event trauma like attachment, developmental and adulthood complex trauma

I think power threat meaning frame work is the better way of discussing this instead the endless loop diagnostic terminology uses. Psychology is wrong on being a medical path and the western societies trying to label and pathologize real human emotions and suffering.
